Detailed Description

A collection of Bone objects used to animate a skinned mesh.

Remarks
Skeletal animation works by having a collection of 'bones' which are actually just joints with a position and orientation, arranged in a tree structure. For example, the wrist joint is a child of the elbow joint, which in turn is a child of the shoulder joint. Rotating the shoulder automatically moves the elbow and wrist as well due to this hierarchy.
So how does this animate a mesh? Well every vertex in a mesh is assigned to one or more bones which affects it's position when the bone is moved. If a vertex is assigned to more than one bone, then weights must be assigned to determine how much each bone affects the vertex (actually a weight of 1.0 is used for single bone assignments). Weighted vertex assignments are especially useful around the joints themselves to avoid 'pinching' of the mesh in this region.
Therefore by moving the skeleton using preset animations, we can animate the mesh. The advantage of using skeletal animation is that you store less animation data, especially as vertex counts increase. In addition, you are able to blend multiple animations together (e.g. walking and looking around, running and shooting) and provide smooth transitions between animations without incurring as much of an overhead as would be involved if you did this on the core vertex data.
Skeleton definitions are loaded from datafiles, namely the .skeleton file format. They are loaded on demand, especially when referenced by a Mesh.

Member Function Documentation

◆ createBone() [1/4]

virtual Bone* Ogre::Skeleton::createBone ( void  )
virtual

Creates a brand new Bone owned by this Skeleton.

Remarks
This method creates an unattached new Bone for this skeleton. Unless this is to be a root bone (there may be more than one of these), you must attach it to another Bone in the skeleton using addChild for it to be any use. For this reason you will likely be better off creating child bones using the Bone::createChild method instead, once you have created the root bone.
Note that this method automatically generates a handle for the bone, which you can retrieve using Bone::getHandle. If you wish the new Bone to have a specific handle, use the alternate form of this method which takes a handle as a parameter, although you should note the restrictions.

◆ createBone() [2/4]

virtual Bone* Ogre::Skeleton::createBone ( unsigned short  handle)
virtual

Creates a brand new Bone owned by this Skeleton.

Remarks
This method creates an unattached new Bone for this skeleton and assigns it a specific handle. Unless this is to be a root bone (there may be more than one of these), you must attach it to another Bone in the skeleton using addChild for it to be any use. For this reason you will likely be better off creating child bones using the Bone::createChild method instead, once you have created a root bone.
Parameters
handleThe handle to give to this new bone - must be unique within this skeleton. You should also ensure that all bone handles are eventually contiguous (this is to simplify their compilation into an indexed array of transformation matrices). For this reason it is advised that you use the simpler createBone method which automatically assigns a sequential handle starting from 0.

◆ createBone() [3/4]

virtual Bone* Ogre::Skeleton::createBone ( const String name)
virtual

Creates a brand new Bone owned by this Skeleton.

Remarks
This method creates an unattached new Bone for this skeleton and assigns it a specific name.Unless this is to be a root bone (there may be more than one of these), you must attach it to another Bone in the skeleton using addChild for it to be any use. For this reason you will likely be better off creating child bones using the Bone::createChild method instead, once you have created the root bone.
Parameters
nameThe name to give to this new bone - must be unique within this skeleton. Note that the way OGRE looks up bones is via a numeric handle, so if you name a Bone this way it will be given an automatic sequential handle. The name is just for your convenience, although it is recommended that you only use the handle to retrieve the bone in performance-critical code.

◆ createBone() [4/4]

virtual Bone* Ogre::Skeleton::createBone ( const String name,
unsigned short  handle 
)
virtual

Creates a brand new Bone owned by this Skeleton.

Remarks
This method creates an unattached new Bone for this skeleton and assigns it a specific name and handle. Unless this is to be a root bone (there may be more than one of these), you must attach it to another Bone in the skeleton using addChild for it to be any use. For this reason you will likely be better off creating child bones using the Bone::createChild method instead, once you have created the root bone.
Parameters
nameThe name to give to this new bone - must be unique within this skeleton.
handleThe handle to give to this new bone - must be unique within this skeleton.

◆ getNumBones()

virtual unsigned short Ogre::Skeleton::getNumBones ( void  ) const
virtual

Returns the number of bones in this skeleton.

◆ getRootBoneIterator()

virtual BoneIterator Ogre::Skeleton::getRootBoneIterator ( void  )
virtual

Get an iterator over the root bones in the skeleton, ie those with no parents.

Deprecated:
use Skeleton::getRootBones

◆ getRootBones()

const BoneList& Ogre::Skeleton::getRootBones ( ) const

Get the root bones in the skeleton, ie those with no parents.

The system derives the root bone the first time you ask for it. The root bone is the only bone in the skeleton which has no parent. The system locates it by taking the first bone in the list and going up the bone tree until there are no more parents, and saves this top bone as the root. If you are building the skeleton manually using createBone then you must ensure there is only one bone which is not a child of another bone, otherwise your skeleton will not work properly. If you use createBone only once, and then use Bone::createChild from then on, then inherently the first bone you create will by default be the root.

◆ getBoneIterator()

virtual BoneIterator Ogre::Skeleton::getBoneIterator ( void  )
virtual

Get an iterator over all the bones in the skeleton.

Deprecated:
use getBones()

◆ getBones()

const BoneList& Ogre::Skeleton::getBones ( ) const
inline

Get all the bones in the skeleton.

◆ getBone() [1/2]

virtual Bone* Ogre::Skeleton::getBone ( unsigned short  handle) const
virtual

Gets a bone by it's handle.

◆ getBone() [2/2]

virtual Bone* Ogre::Skeleton::getBone ( const String name) const
virtual

Gets a bone by it's name.

◆ hasBone()

virtual bool Ogre::Skeleton::hasBone ( const String name) const
virtual

Returns whether this skeleton contains the named bone.

◆ setBindingPose()

virtual void Ogre::Skeleton::setBindingPose ( void  )
virtual

Sets the current position / orientation to be the 'binding pose' i.e.

the layout in which bones were originally bound to a mesh.

◆ reset()

virtual void Ogre::Skeleton::reset ( bool  resetManualBones = false)
virtual

Resets the position and orientation of all bones in this skeleton to their original binding position.

Remarks
A skeleton is bound to a mesh in a binding pose. Bone positions are then modified from this position during animation. This method returns all the bones to their original position and orientation.
Parameters
resetManualBonesIf set to true, causes the state of manual bones to be reset too, which is normally not done to allow the manual state to persist even when keyframe animation is applied.

◆ createAnimation()

virtual Animation* Ogre::Skeleton::createAnimation ( const String name,
Real  length 
)
virtual

Creates a new Animation object for animating this skeleton.

Parameters
nameThe name of this animation
lengthThe length of the animation in seconds

Implements Ogre::AnimationContainer.

Reimplemented in Ogre::SkeletonInstance.

◆ getAnimation() [1/3]

virtual Animation* Ogre::Skeleton::getAnimation ( const String name,
const LinkedSkeletonAnimationSource **  linker 
) const
virtual

Returns the named Animation object.

Remarks
Will pick up animations in linked skeletons (
See also
addLinkedSkeletonAnimationSource).
Parameters
nameThe name of the animation
linkerOptional pointer to a pointer to the linked skeleton animation where this is coming from.

Reimplemented in Ogre::SkeletonInstance.

◆ getAnimation() [2/3]

virtual Animation* Ogre::Skeleton::getAnimation ( const String name) const
virtual

Returns the named Animation object.

Remarks
Will pick up animations in linked skeletons (
See also
addLinkedSkeletonAnimationSource).
Parameters
nameThe name of the animation

Implements Ogre::AnimationContainer.

◆ _getAnimationImpl()

virtual Animation* Ogre::Skeleton::_getAnimationImpl ( const String name,
const LinkedSkeletonAnimationSource **  linker = 0 
) const
virtual

Internal accessor for animations (returns null if animation does not exist)

Reimplemented in Ogre::SkeletonInstance.

◆ hasAnimation()

virtual bool Ogre::Skeleton::hasAnimation ( const String name) const
virtual

Returns whether this skeleton contains the named animation.

Implements Ogre::AnimationContainer.

◆ removeAnimation()

virtual void Ogre::Skeleton::removeAnimation ( const String name)
virtual

Removes an Animation from this skeleton.

Implements Ogre::AnimationContainer.

Reimplemented in Ogre::SkeletonInstance.

◆ setAnimationState()

virtual void Ogre::Skeleton::setAnimationState ( const AnimationStateSet animSet)
virtual

Changes the state of the skeleton to reflect the application of the passed in collection of animations.

Remarks
Animating a skeleton involves both interpolating between keyframes of a specific animation, and blending between the animations themselves. Calling this method sets the state of the skeleton so that it reflects the combination of all the passed in animations, at the time index specified for each, using the weights specified. Note that the weights between animations do not have to sum to 1.0, because some animations may affect only subsets of the skeleton. If the weights exceed 1.0 for the same area of the skeleton, the movement will just be exaggerated.

◆ _initAnimationState()

virtual void Ogre::Skeleton::_initAnimationState ( AnimationStateSet animSet)
virtual

Initialise an animation set suitable for use with this skeleton.

Remarks
Only recommended for use inside the engine, not by applications.

Reimplemented in Ogre::SkeletonInstance.

◆ _refreshAnimationState()

virtual void Ogre::Skeleton::_refreshAnimationState ( AnimationStateSet animSet)
virtual

Refresh an animation set suitable for use with this skeleton.

Remarks
Only recommended for use inside the engine, not by applications.

Reimplemented in Ogre::SkeletonInstance.

◆ _getBoneMatrices()

virtual void Ogre::Skeleton::_getBoneMatrices ( Affine3 pMatrices)
virtual

Populates the passed in array with the bone matrices based on the current position.

Remarks
Internal use only. The array pointed to by the passed in pointer must be at least as large as the number of bones. Assumes animation has already been updated.

◆ getNumAnimations()

virtual unsigned short Ogre::Skeleton::getNumAnimations ( void  ) const
virtual

Gets the number of animations on this skeleton.

Implements Ogre::AnimationContainer.

Reimplemented in Ogre::SkeletonInstance.

◆ getAnimation() [3/3]

Will NOT pick up animations in linked skeletons (
See also
addLinkedSkeletonAnimationSource).

Reimplemented in Ogre::SkeletonInstance.

◆ getBlendMode()

virtual SkeletonAnimationBlendMode Ogre::Skeleton::getBlendMode ( ) const
virtual

Gets the animation blending mode which this skeleton will use.

Parameters
preservingIdentityNodeTracksIf true, don't destroy identity node tracks.

◆ addLinkedSkeletonAnimationSource()

virtual void Ogre::Skeleton::addLinkedSkeletonAnimationSource ( const String skelName,
Real  scale = 1.0f 
)
virtual

Allows you to use the animations from another Skeleton object to animate this skeleton.

Remarks
If you have skeletons of identical structure (that means identically named bones with identical handles, and with the same hierarchy), but slightly different proportions or binding poses, you can re-use animations from one in the other. Because animations are actually stored as changes to bones from their bind positions, it's possible to use the same animation data for different skeletons, provided the skeletal structure matches and the 'deltas' stored in the keyframes apply equally well to the other skeletons bind position (so they must be roughly similar, but don't have to be identical). You can use the 'scale' option to adjust the translation and scale keyframes where there are large differences in size between the skeletons.
Note
This method takes a skeleton name, rather than a more specific animation name, for two reasons; firstly it allows some validation of compatibility of skeletal structure, and secondly skeletons are the unit of loading. Linking a skeleton to another in this way means that the linkee will be prevented from being destroyed until the linker is destroyed.

You cannot set up cyclic relationships, e.g. SkeletonA uses SkeletonB's animations, and SkeletonB uses SkeletonA's animations. This is because it would set up a circular dependency which would prevent proper unloading - make one of the skeletons the 'master' in this case.

Parameters
skelNameName of the skeleton to link animations from. This skeleton will be loaded immediately if this skeleton is already loaded, otherwise it will be loaded when this skeleton is.
scaleA scale factor to apply to translation and scaling elements of the keyframes in the other skeleton when applying the animations to this one. Compensates for skeleton size differences.

◆ _mergeSkeletonAnimations()

virtual void Ogre::Skeleton::_mergeSkeletonAnimations ( const Skeleton source,
const BoneHandleMap boneHandleMap,
const StringVector animations = StringVector() 
)
virtual

Merge animations from another Skeleton object into this skeleton.

Remarks
This function allow merge two structures compatible skeletons. The 'compatible' here means identically bones will have same hierarchy, but skeletons are not necessary to have same number of bones (if number bones of source skeleton's more than this skeleton, they will copied as is, except that duplicate names are disallowed; and in the case of bones missing in source skeleton, nothing happen for those bones).
There are also unnecessary to have same binding poses, this function will adjust keyframes of the source skeleton to match this skeleton automatically.
It's useful for exporting skeleton animations separately. i.e. export mesh and 'master' skeleton at the same time, and then other animations will export separately (even if used completely difference binding pose), finally, merge separately exported animations into 'master' skeleton.
Parameters
sourcePointer to source skeleton. It'll keep unmodified.
boneHandleMapA map to translate identically bone's handle from source skeleton to this skeleton. If mapped bone handle doesn't exists in this skeleton, it'll created. You can populate bone handle map manually, or use predefined functions build bone handle map for you. (
